Baby Feeding

So I’m thinking ahead but want to get a head start in weaning ideas. Any tips welcome with regards to any booked you recommend , but also this ongoing debate of waiting until 6 months or not? I have had such conflicting advice! Recipe books ideas welcome, as I really want her to be a foodie like me! First time...

My baby has been showing signs he's ready for food. He's always trying to grab stuff we are eating and scoff it! We tried him last couple of days with some veg. Tried broccoli yesterday, both puree and whole. Sweet potato today, pureed and whole. He doesn't seem to be enjoying it. I dunno if it's cause he's not a...

My little one is having a very unhappy day today. He’s gone from a generally content baby to very needy and crying a lot bless him. He has 5/6 210ml bottles and is now having three meals but I’m wondering if he’s having enough? For breakfast he’s having either porridge or weetabix and this photo is his lunch and the...

Anyone else’s baby having like a tantrum type thing when you take the bottle away to wind them? My little boy has only started it the last 2 days when I take the bottle out he screams crying and throws himself back but them stops as soon as he gets his wind up 🙈

What are we supposed to use to descale the tommee tippee prep machines? I know it’s supposed to be white vinegar but can’t find that at supermarkets😫 My machine won’t let me use it now until I’ve descaled it, I didn’t know it needed white vinegar for this 🙃

Does anyone else’s baby feed in little bits? For example this is my LB feed schedule today : 1am - 5oz 4.30- 2 oz 6.40- 1oz 8.30- 4oz 11.30- 5oz 3pm - 1oz 3.50-1 oz 4.20- 1oz It’s very annoying as it means he doesn’t really sleep in the day and then he gets extremely overtired from 6pm onwards. I’ve tried to ...

Any tips on how to get my LB to take Calpol/Ibruprofen? I’ve tried pretty much everything (bottle teat/clean finger/inside cheek/nipple) but he always spits it out. We all have Covid and he is suffering & I just want to ease some of the discomfort for him 😭

Bought these for my daughter to try do away with the mam bottles. She will try to use it then just cry until I give her an old bottle. Seems like its too slow for her not too sure if its something you just have to let them get used too?

Hi, my babies 7 and a half weeks old and currently on aptamil formula 6x feeds 4oz (120ml) per feed as per the aptamil guidelines for his age etc. he should be going 4 hours in between feeds but the past 3 days he’s only going 2 hours and then he’s hungry again. What should I do? I can’t feed him 120ml every 2 hours...

How is everyone heating puree up I’m about to start weaning my little girl and not sure the best way to do it

Anyone else's little one has a cold? My 6 week old baby boy has a cold and a cough thanks to my 5 Yr old lol Sometimes he will guzzle thr bottle down a full 4oz othertines he only has around 1 ounce

My little girl is mostly EBF. Every now and then she has a bottle with expressed breast milk and we are now trying to introduce formula. She’s had a couple made from powder but so that we weren’t wasting open tins of formula I bought a few of the ready to drink bottles. We’ve tried them the last two nights and she h...

I have just come to say that those of you who have a chilled out baby don’t realise how lucky you are. To be able to make a cup of coffee and drink it. Or cook something…. I can’t even make her anything food wise, so I give her porridge and pouches and she would never allow me to fry an egg or do anything that takes...

For the past two days, my LO hasn’t been wanting his solids at all. I feed him and not BLW and he just completely refuses it. So literally takes a few spoonful- I’m talking about like max 5 and then I have to stop because he gets really fussy. Does your little one do this too, and what do you do in this situation?...

I made banana mash/puree the other day in bulk because I bought to many bananas. I put it in an ice cube tray and have frozen it. Buts gone a dark brown colour after a few days is that normal? Or am I being stupid ? I've loads of other frozen veg and finger foods in the freezer and they are fine

Seriously reduced milk intake over the last 4-5 days. Only taking 2-3oz each feed then refusing any more. Anyone else?
